Where is Destination in Acrobat DC?

Hi - I'm trying to figure out how to create a Named Destination, using the latest version of Acrobat DC. 
All the instruction I can find online (for example https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/link-html-pdf-page-acrobat.html?x-product=Helpx%2F1.0.0&x-product-location=Search%3AForums%3Alink%2F3.6.7) say to go to View >> Navigation Tabs >> Destinations, but that menu doesn't exist in my version.
I need to be able to create destinations (like anchor tags) for links inside a .pdf , but I can't find this in Acrobat . 

I'm using Acrobat DC on Windows (Adobe CC).

 

Anybody know how I can find this function?

 

Thanks

-Tom

Are you on the new UI? If so, right-click the right-hand side menu where there is Pages, Bookmarks, etc., and you'll see the option to add Destinations to it, too.

 

Why this needed to be moved from the left-hand side to the right-hand one, and the rest of the tools from the right to the left, thereby breaking all previous instructions that have worked for many years and confuse many users? Adobe only knows...

Forgot to mention: Alternatively, you can go to Menu and select Disable New Acrobat to return to the good-old UI...
