Sure you can. 'We passed the hospital on the way here' is perfectly good 
English.


Note that in 'passing place', as commonly used in the UK at least, the 
reference is usually to two vehicles going in opposite directions, so 
it's not the same as overtaking (though 'passing' does mean that as 
well, more often in fact).
