The event took place at Mt. Sinai. The entire unified people of Israel, gathered at the base of the mountain, heard the Ten Commandments spoken in some kind of loud voice from the direction of the mountain, and found the experience so fearful and exhausting that they begged not to hear any more first-hand, and for Moses to bring the rest to them and tell them about it. The so-called "Ten Commandments" came direct, not through Moses.
Also according to scripture, forty years later, as Moses narrated his memoirs to the people just before his death, and recalled the event at Sinai, he paraphrased the Ten Commandments, not even repeating the same words that everyone had heard there.
However, the actual location of the Mt. Sinai of The Bible is in dispute. Although the traditional location is in the Sinai Peninsula, the Apostle Paul said it was in Saudi Arabia:-
Gal 4 (v.25) For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children.
Mt. Sinai is believed by some to correspond to Jebel-el-Lawz in Saudi Arabia, but since that country is Islamic and forbids anything christian, let alone exploration, physical verification on-site is impossible. However, it is marked on Google Earth.
