You CAN reverse them in English. /How do I get from here to there? How
do I get there from here?/ But notice the dropping of the /to;/ the
order CANNOT be reversed if the /to/ remains.

Sometimes, things are just as they are and why should you change
it. In English, you also go "from here to there" and saying that
you go "to there from here" sounds strange (to me at least).
