Monkeying around
Note that this is the first level to feature locals roaming around. These locals will generally mind their own business and won't get in your way, but they will fight back if attacked. Don't provoke unnecessary street fights if possible, and be careful of who you're aiming when attacked by actual enemies.

Right where you start off, you can see a monkey holding a wrench. There is also a broken machine nearby that is needed to access a higher area. Just like you've seen in the opening cutscene, you need to give the monkey a banana to get the wrench, and there just happens to be a bow full of bananas nearby. Toss a banana to the monkey to trade it for the wrench, then use the wrench to fix the elevator. Move up it and go through the door to enter the next scene.

The marketplace
On this street, you will start to get attacked regularly by bandits, so be on guard. There are a lot of destroyables and studs scattered around here which you can use to build up your stud count. There are a total of 5 stalls that have loose blocks which you can reassemble, giving you more studs. You need to get two keys to progress, and one is clearly visible on the roof of an alley entrance. Destroying a railing near a lever will let you rebuild a ladder leading to the rooftop, but the missing lever part is buried. Luckily, another monkey happens to have a shovel, so take a banana from a nearby stall to exchange it for the shovel.

There are two spots you can use the shovel. Dig on the mound of dirt to unearth parts that can be used to build a table with some barrels and brooms, which you can then destroy for some extra studs. Dig the ground below the lever to reveal the missing piece, which will automatically reattach itself to the lever. Pull the lever to fully extend the ladder. Climb the ladder and leap across the awnings to get the key, and then continue along the awnings to collect more studs. Take the key to the large gate and use it to operate one of the cranks, which will partially unlock the gate. You might attract the attention of some bandits, so take them out swiftly.

To the right of the gate is a small chute where you can get studs from in Free Play. Move to the area at the back and push the large cart to the left. Have Marion jump on to the awning and to the cart, then jump from there to the rope. Pulling the rope will permanently raise a platform that lets you reach an alcove with the second key. Take the key to the gate and use it to operate the other crank, fully unlocking the gate and letting you advance to the next area.

Bazaar plaza
As soon as you enter the area, you will be under attack by two enemy officers riding on camels. More officers will spawn from the truck on the right, so you'll have to constantly fight them off. You can force the officers off of the camels by throwing objects at them, shooting them with another officer's pistols and hitting them with a shovel. Ultimately, you need to destroy a box near a large cart and use it to build a pull pad on the cart. Pull the cart backwards to open up an alley, which will let you proceed further. You can also destroy the blocks that fall out of the cart for more studs.

Alley to the roof
You will be attacked by two pairs of swordsmen the moment you enter, so dispatch them quickly. You will also be ambushed by some more bandits further along the alley, and more will come down when you reach the staircase. Defeat them and climb the staircase to reach the roof. There is an unfinished ladder with parts stored in a metal barrel, and the monkey just happens to have a bundle of dynamite. You can't throw a banana to it with the railings of the balcony blocking you, so have Indy pull down the balcony with his whip. Trade the banana for the dynamite and toss it at the barrel, which will reveal the missing section of the ladder, letting you climb higher.

The rooftops
You will arrive on a rooftop garden, and there is plenty of things for you to destroy. Rebuild the sprinkler next to the empty pots to make flowers grow from those pots, letting you destroy them. You can also place the lego blocks on to the barbecue for more studs. Once you're done, move towards the rusty dome. The dome's surface is too steep for you to climb, so push the smooth part of the dome away to reveal a staircase. Move up it to the top, then give the green sphere a push, making it hit the wooden plank on the opposite rooftop, creating a bridge.

Move across the rooftops until you reach an area consisted of stone pillars connected by wooden planks. Be quick and careful when crossing these planks, as they will collapse and fall if you stay on it too long, leaving only small handrails on the stone pillars to save yourself. After that section lies another stone pillar with an elusive purple stud. There's no planks to help you reach it, though a careful high jump should let you make it to the pillar and back. Take the banana and trade it for the key from the monkey, then use the key to operate the crank, which will extend a bridge to another roof.

Here, you'll need lift two objects on to the green pads to reach the next area. The first object is on an awning that is too slippery to stand on. You need to trade a banana for a wrench, then use it to fix the broken motor, which will retract the awning and let you get the object. For the second object, swing to the next building using Indy, then destroy the fence. Using the blocks from the fence, build a bridge to the previous building, then carry the object back. Once both objects are placed, use the blocks to build a large lever. Pull on one side of the lever to force the hatch open, then jump down.
