The main asteroid belt is a rather broad band ring situated between Mars and Jupiter. Its inner edge (and average distance) is closer to the orbit of Mars than the outer edge is to Jupiter, making planet Mars the closest.

Note that Ceres, once identified as a planet, is inside the asteroid belt itself - but now classified as a dwarf planet (or the largest astroid).
