Been or gone?

We often use been to, instead of gone to, when we refer to completed visits to a place:

Have you ever been to Tehran?

If the visit isn't complete, we use gone.

 
Joan’s just gone to the shop. She’ll be back in about ten minutes.
(Joan has not returned from the shop yet.)

Joan’s just been to the shop. She bought some cakes. Would you like one?
(Joan has returned from the shop.)
