Kanji positioning question 上

Why The kanji 上 which means above,up,over comes before everything else?

上のフロアにキッチンがあります。which means (There is a kitchen on the floor above.)

Am I complicating something just because I’m not understading that there’s different ways to read this phrase?

​

Because in this sentence:

山の上でヨガをしたいね。(I want to do yoga on top of a mountain.) Why doesn’t the 上 comes before everything here too?

​

Like, could I say translating the phrase more closer to what I think it looks like, **(Upstairs there’s a kitchen**) also correct?

Also, the last sentence, could I also read that sentence as **(At the Mountain’s top I want to do yoga?**) too?

​

​

I know this has probably asked dozens over the last 5 years here, but just wanted to be sure about this, because I was not getting closer to an explanation searching in internet.
