There you should see a stone ledge over a ramp. Take a running jump to grab the ledge, crossing the ramp. From the ledge, head up by climbing along the wall and pull up into an alcove.

Bhogavati is the eighth level in Tomb Raider Underworld and the second of the Coastal Thailand Section.
Part of the level was included in the Tomb Raider Underworld Demo alongside with the full Remnants level.
Bhogavati is the capital of Patala, the seventh netherworld in Hindu tradition. It is populated by naga, which in the most notorious descriptions are large snake-people. The architectural style of this ruin has never been found this far to the southwest before and is older than any other site I'm familiar with, which changes our notions of how these Hindu traditions moved throughout Asia.
