I arrived at 11am and sure enough, there was already a line formation.
The cost is 7,900 Colombian pesos ~ $4.19 USD for a round-trip ticket which gives you access to the funicular (cable car) up the mountain of Cerro de Monserrate.
I made a video of the funicular ride (of the ride down):
Once you reach the top of the mountain, you get access to the beautiful grounds of Cerro de Monserate. There are restrooms and restaurants available if you see yourself spending a lot of time here.
There is a beautiful wishing well and religious monuments.
All roads lead up to the beautiful and magnificent church.
The insides of the church contained stained glass windows and several religious figures.
