Thats kind of a really broad question. Can you narrow it down a little and I can help you?

Colloquial
＜Object>はどこですか。 Eng- Where is (the) <Object>?
Polite
＜Object>はどちらですか。 Eng- Where is (the) <Object>?
どちら is the polite form of どこ, which means "where" in English.

Do you mean 'ask where something is' or 'describe where something is'? To me, the way your question is worded sounds like you asking how to describe/state where something is.

<object>は　ここ／そこ／あそこ　です
<object>は　<place>に　ある／あります
<person/animal>は　<place>に　いる／います
