In order to get inside, you'll need one of the wooden poles available in this area—either the one you used to reach treasure #19 or the one sticking out of the square column near treasure #21. (See the treasure screenshots if you need help finding a pole.) To remove a pole from its socket, just hang from it, move as close as possible to the column, face the column and press Interact to yank the pole free.
There are three square pillars with holes for poles at the front of the temple. Once you have a pole, take it to the pillar on the left (shown in the screenshot above), and plug it in (also using the Interact key).
Climb onto the pole and jump up to grab the handhold above.
Climb around to the left and jump up to grab the handhold above. Climb to the left.
Jump to grab the next pillar.
Climb around to the left so Lara's back is toward the temple. Then jump back to grab the nubby stone handholds on the wall.
Climb along to the right as far as you can, then jump the gap where there are no handholds to grab the bumpy stones beyond. Climb to the right until you once more run out of handholds. Then jump back. . .
. . . to land on the horizontal stone beam connecting the nearest square columns. Turn so the temple is on Lara's left and walk to the end of the beam.
Then turn right and jump to grab the column ahead. Traverse to the left and pull up onto the short beam.
Walk to the end and jump to the next short beam jutting out from the column ahead on the left. Hang from this beam, traverse to the left past the column and pull up on the other side.
Now jump to the beam protruding from the temple wall just ahead. Walk toward the wall and jump straight up to grab the handhold above.
Climb around the corner to the right and drop down twice to reach the ground. The floor ahead looks dangerously cracked, but it's safe. Go forward and break the clay jar to get another treasure (22/50).
