Well, we're inside the Milky Way galaxy, so obviously it's the closest.
The closest satellite galaxy to us is the Canis Major Dwarf Galaxy at a distance of about 25,000 light years.
Most scientists say that the closest galaxy that isn't a satellite of the Milky Way is Andromeda, about 2 million light years away.
However some argue the Large Magellanic Cloud is a separate galaxy, and not a satellite of our own galaxy. If they are correct then the nearest galaxy is 169,000 light years away.
