Trajan's Markets - Secret #3 and Venus Symbol
After defeating the animated centurion statue, as shown in the previous section,
climb onto the ledge below the window and pick up a small medipack and Uzi clips (27-28) (60-61/239). Climb through the broken window...
...and get another small medipack (29) (62/239) at the left end of the ledge. Drop down to the street.
The ROOM WITH THE POOL AND FALLING WATER is right here. But before taking a swim, return to the start of the level for a secret. To get there, turn so the pool on Lara's right. Follow the street forward, around the corner to the left...
...and through the open gate just beyond the single palm tree. Outside the gate, turn left...
...Outside the gate, turn left and follow the white stone wall to the end. (The ABANDONED BUILDINGS you explored at the beginning of the level are off to the right). The gate at the far end of the white stone wall is now open.
Inside you'll find a golden rose (30) (63/239) (SECRET #3, 6/36).
Return to the ROOM WITH THE POOL AND FALLING WATER.
Swim down and forward, then left...
...through the gate, which is now open. Pick up the VENUS SYMBOL (31) (64/239) and swim straight on to the next room.
Save the game. Then pull up into the doorway.
Cutscene: Lara ambushes Larson, who is attempting to ambush her in the gargoyle garden from the first level.
DARK MODE: I plan to add optional dark mode for these pages, but my current priority is updating the walkthroughs. Meanwhile, may I suggest a reputable dark mode browser extension, such as Dark Reader? (Download only from trusted sites, like darkreader.org or your browser's web store.)
