Grammar
From which/ from where
The rider was a dark-haired woman. I caught only a glimpse of her features. She managed to turn the horse back in the direction from which she had come, and she shook the reins. The chestnut started forward, and suddenly it reared. I managed to hang on.

I think here "from which" means "from the place which."
So I think I can use "from where" in lieu of "from which."
If so, I'd like to know what difference there is "from which" and "from where."
Thank you in advance for your help.
