Rise of the Tomb Raider - Lost City Murals, Monoliths & Coin Caches
Updated: 7/4/16(†)
This guide, along with the annotated level maps linked below, should help find the 3 murals, the monolith, and the 3 coin caches it reveals. If you are playing this level for the first time, you may want to follow the main walkthrough instead.
Weapons, Equipment, and Outfits are covered elsewhere. Other collectibles are detailed on separate pages:
Relics · Documents · Murals · Monolith & Coin Caches · Archivist Maps · Explorer Satchels · Survival Caches · Codices · Crypt Treasures · Challenges
MURAL 1
This mural is in the tunnel leading to the Timekeeper's Crypt, on the southwest side of the city. If you missed it the first time, follow the main walkthrough and you'll find the mural in the same cave as the wall you must break down with your axe in order to enter the crypt.

MURAL 2
This mural is on the outer wall of the building just east of the one where you land after riding the zip lines down from the Threshold of Kitezh Base Camp. If you follow my walkthrough and take out the enemies first, this will be the second mural you find. (Click screenshot to enlarge.)
MURAL 3
This mural is in on the north side of the plaza near the second gate. If you missed it, just return to the Citadel Plaza Base Camp and go past the horse statue in the middle of the plaza to find the mural. This is covered in the Part 2 walkthrough. (Click screenshot to enlarge.)
MONOLITH
The only monolith in the city is a short distance southwest of the building where you land after sliding down the zip lines from the Threshold of Kitezh Base Camp. Check the level map and walkthrough if you're having trouble finding it. (Click screenshot to enlarge.)
COIN CACHE 1
After deciphering the monolith, which requires Level 2 Mongolian, the 3 coin caches will become accessible and will be marked on your in-game map. The first cache is just north of the monolith, buried behind a low, rectangular barrier. One of the banners for the Banner Wars Challenge is hanging nearby. See the walkthrough and level map for details. (Click screenshot to enlarge.)
COIN CACHE 2
This cache is buried on the northeast side of the building nearest the clearing in front of the bear's den/Challenge Tomb entrance. If you're exiting the bear's cave, as shown in this screenshot, the cache is just up the hill. Another of the banners for the challenge is hanging nearby. (Click screenshot to enlarge.)
COIN CACHE 3
The third cache is buried in the open area southwest of the tower with the golden dome. Search near the post supporting the dangling crate in the middle of the courtyard and you'll see the signal to dig. (Click screenshot to enlarge.)
