You're likely to get a few different answers to this question...
If you want to "see what the kernel looks like" in my book, downloaded
kernel-sources, then go into the src directory. All of the code which
compiles into a Linux kernel is there.
If you mean "what does the binary" look like, then get ready for an
interesting view...
get the linuz/linux/whatever you named it file in /boot, and open it in
a binary/hex editor, or you can use adb or sdb. Unless you "read"
kernels as a twisted hobby, or do it for a living, you won't be
impressed.
Is there some particular thing you're looking for, or just curious?

There's tons of information out there about the kernel and how to do
things with it but all
I want to do is see what the kernel looks like.
Where can I take a look at the kernel? Isn't there a direct path to
it?
