Where to find the .vim directory?

Question

I'm trying to find out my .vim file which is a hidden file and that should be in my home , I want to install a vim plugin and for that i need to access the plugin folder which is in .vim file. I'm unable to find it out. I used terminal but I found this

amitwebhero@AmitKali:~$ ~/.vim
bash: /home/amitwebhero/.vim: No such file or directory

Try to tell me where i can find it

Solution

If you do not have a .vim directory or .vimrc file in your home directory the default ones in /etc/vim will be used instead.

To override the values in /etc/vim for your user you should create a .vim directory and .vimrc file in your home directory.
