"de" Vs. "le"

Nĭ shénme shíhou lái Zhōngguó de?
So if that means when did you come to China? how come the sentence ends with de and not le?
I thought le was the particle which conveyed the past, like
Wŏ chīfanle.
Or are de and le both interchangeable in this way?
Could I also say
Nĭ shénme shíhou lái Zhōngguó le?
Or
Nĭ shénme shíhou láile Zhōngguó?
?
Thanks in advance, people.
