Er, neither. It refers to the document where your media lives.
Probably the same as MEDIA_ROOT in your settings.py.

I don't understand why you want to specify anything instead of
site_media. That's just a URL, and your urls.py is mapping it to a
particular place on the disk - ie where your media files are saved.
There's no reason to start putting references to your template there.
