Part 1:
GOING DOWN

 

Standing on the wooden platform you can see a mechanism on your left and right. This is more like India than Thailand, but we’ve seen South American Macaws here too, now haven’t we?
Turn right and go up the steps. Then turn left where you go down from another set of steps. Standing on the branch turn left, crawl under a beam and hang from the edge.


Hang from this edge

 

You can see a narrow ledge underneath where you can drop down and then to the floor. On your right there are 2 jars that you may break. Nothing in there though. Pick up a rod and stick it into one of the pillars.
Go under a beam and break a jar to pick up Treasure #11. Return to the rod and hang from it. Swing/jump to the narrow ledge on the opposite pillar and from there jump right to the narrow ledge on the pillar on your right.


Pick up this rod


Stick it into the pillar


Then jump right to the narrow ledge on the next pillar

 

There you see an L-shaped narrow ledge on the right wall. Jump to it, shimmy left around the corner where you can vault up to some stones in the wall. Climb up a bit to your right until you reach an upper narrow ledge.


Jump right


Now to this L-shaped narrow ledge


From these stones climb up to the upper narrow ledge


Jump backwards

 

Jump backwards to the broken pillar and perch on. Shoot some 5 attacking bats from where you are standing.


Perch on the first broken pillar

 

Then jump to the second broken pillar to perch on and from there to the opposite ledge. Pull up and first turn right to collect a Health Potion.


The second broken pillar


Your Health Potion

 

Now turn left and have a look at the mechanism. There is a rod sticking out. Jump onto it and pull it out ( press B1). With the rod in your left hand return to the edge where you climbed up and jump to the narrow ledge of the pillar in front of you.


Pull out the rod


Jump to the narrow ledge on the pillar

 

Lara will then drop the rod to the floor.
Shimmy right around the two corners until you are hanging from a narrow beam protruding from the pillar.


Hang from this narrow beam

 

 Pull up to the beam, jump to the opposite broken pillar, perch on it and then jump to the opposite ledge.


Perching on the broken pillar, jump to the opposite ledge

 

Again, crawl under the stone and return past the wooden platform facing the Statues to a left staircase. Descend the second staircase, turn right under a beam and hang from the edge. Here you will see stones in the wall, so shimmy right and drop to the stones. Follow the stones until you get to the floor where you have to shoot some 5 or 6 attacking bats.


Hang from the ledge


The stones in the wall will lead you down

 

Left of the wall you came down from is a narrow ledge you can jump up to.


Jump up to this narrow ledge

 

Shimmy right and jump to the narrow ledge on your right.


Jump to your right here

 

Then keep on shimmying right and around the corner where you see the Statues of Kali (upside down) and Shiva.


The corner where you will see the Statues

 

Around the corner follow the stones in the wall until you reach the right part of the broken narrow ledge. Turn all around the corners, pull up, jump to the opposite wall and as soon as you touch the wall press B4 to jump to the top edge of the wall you were just hanging from.


Climb around these stones in the wall

 

Hanging from this edge shimmy right around the corner and pull up.


Press B4 twice to jump up

 

Turn left and grapple on the ring in front of the mechanism. Press B1 to pull it out.


Pull out the ring

 

OK, now you’ve fixed the two mechanisms and you need to return to the wooden platform again. But first turn around and collect a Health Potion.


A Health Potion for Lara

 

Then hang from this ledge:


This ledge is nearby

 

Drop down to the lower narrow ledge and then to the floor.
Turn around and proceed to your left where there is a gap (you see the Statues of Shiva and Kali on your left side). Look straight forward and notice a ring to grapple on and traverse this wide gap.


Shiva and Kali on your left


Grapple on the ring

 

You can now swing to the other side and return above just like you did before with the stick and perching on the broken pillars. Return to the wooden platform. Save the Game and pull the lever on your left now.


Now you can pull down a working lever

 

The wooden platform will then be sinking and as soon as you see a ring grapple on it to prevent Lara from dropping dead. When she’s hanging from the rope hold B1 + LAS down. At the lowest point press B3 to land on the fallen platform.


You have to be fast to grapple on this ring

 

Once down 4 monsters will attack Lara (2 green and 2 red ones). Just keep shooting until they’re all gone.


Get rid of them suckers


Now you have them all

 

There are two exits where the wooden platform has fallen down. Take either of them and go all the way down until you will meet 3 Statues: 2 Lions and a Cobra. The jars can be broken but they contain nothing. There is a square deep hole in the floor.
The Cobra Statue has a golden ring on its head. Grapple on the ring and descend into the hole. Release the cable by pressing B3. The rounded left jar contains Treasure #12.


Grapple on the Cobra ring


Get down


Smash that jar

 

Then proceed into this lower passage until a small cut scene will start:
The Architecture is different... It’s similar to the Nilfheim ruins.
To get out of here you will have to do a lot of climbing.
