  1. You use the reverse geocoder page for that. https://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/ui/reverse.html
  2. Same as https://www.openstreetmap.org/ it's for debugging only. No such function yet as I 'm aware. You have to ask Nominatim or whoever's hosting it. One possible workaround is in https://openpoimap.org/ use "place" and boundary=administrative.
