In Spanish we can either use the prepositions “en” or “sobre” to say “on”. The Spanish preposition “en” has a much broader meaning. It is often used as “on” and as “in”.
The Spanish preposition “sobre” implies “leaning on”. Therefore, its meaning is not as broad as the English preposition “on” when talking about location.
However, “sobre” has an additional meaning. It also means “about”, as a synonym for “acerca de“.
