During the creation of S3Client you can specify the endpoint mapping to a particular region. If default of s3.amazonaws.com then bucket will be created in us-east-1 which is North Virginia.

More details on S3 endpoints and regions in AWS docs: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/rande.html#s3_region.

So, always make sure about the endpoint/region while creating the S3Client and access S3 resouces using the same client in the same region.

If the bucket is created from AWS S3 Console, then check the region from the console for that bucket then create a S3 Client in that region using the endpoint details mentioned in the above link.
