In the previous section, Lara used two ropes to activate the machine and open the huge, round door. Pulling the second rope also opened a trapdoor below, leading to a secret room. The trapdoor is visible from the entrance to the SECOND ROPE ROOM. It is just below the entrance from the ABANDONED BUILDINGS.
NOTE: If, after pulling the second rope once, you pull it again, the trapdoor will close. Pull the rope again to re-open it.

Hang and drop from the SECOND ROPE ROOM doorway to the ground. (Lara loses a tiny bit of health.)

Turn around and go straight across the open area (over or around the low railing). Drop through the trapdoor.

Collect a golden rose (9) (SECRET #1) (item 42/239 and secret 4/36), plus wideshot shotgun ammo (10)...

...and regular shotgun ammo (11) (43-44/239). Climb back out.
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.)
