Where is the closest replica of the Globe Theatre?

In London. It is called Shakespeare's Globe Theatre, it is in almost the same location as the original and it is as close to the 1599 theatre as it is possible to get and still be within modern fire and building codes. For example, they are not allowed to pack 3000 people into it as they could in Shakespeare's day, and there are bathrooms for the convenience of patrons.

Was the globe theatre in a similar place as it is today?

The original Globe Theatre, built in 1599, was built in Southwark, south of the River Thames across from the City of London. The replica Globe is also in Southwark not far from the same place. They could not build it exactly on the same place because another historically significant building has been built over the foundations of the original theatre. Some of these foundations were revealed when they were rebuilding the parking lot.
