Technically, it would be at the spot directly beneath the Moon when it is at perigee. This happens about once a month in a diferent place each time, since the rotation of the Earth and the revolution of the Moon are not in synch.

Moon rise is when the moon appears largest due to the diffusion of the light as it passes through our atmosphere.
