The entrance to head up to the rooftop is located at the North Gate, which is very clearly marked and easy to find. The staff members were friendly and helpful.
We visited early in the morning, which allowed us to get inside quickly without having to wait in any long lines. After enjoying the incredible views from the top, we were able to take the interior stairs straight down into the cathedral to continue our visit. Highly recommended to start your day here early!
