Use a file manager to look in the following locations:

  1. /data/app
  2. /data/app-private
  3. /system/app/
  4. /sdcard/.android_secure (shows .asec files, not .apks)
    On Samsung phones: /sdcard/external_sd/.android_secure

You need to be rooted to view the first three.

    Matthew, you can consider an update to the answer. Android need not be rooted to access /system/app/ now. – Firelord♦ Dec 5 '15 at 5:32

System apps are found in /system/app/.

The other apps you've installed are found in the /mnt/asec/ directory. See my answer to this question for details.
