Use the ledges up ahead and then you should be at the exit.

Follow the tunnel and you'll get to a switch.

The door behind Midas's statue will open, so head through there.

And in the end you should get to the big room with fire contraptions. Even more fun.

Step on the plate ahead and all room pretty much comes back to "life". Whee, fire.

Update: (thanks to Bruce Nicoll)

You can actually traverse this whole section without setting off the fire system. Firstly, jump in the water (without standing on the pad) to catch the alligator's attention. Swim to the side, climb out and kill it. Jump back in and flick the underwater switch. This way, when you go to stand on the pressure pad to jump to the first island, it wont enable the fire system for some reason.

If you fall into the water some way along the course and have to start again, stepping on the pad for a second time will, in fact, set the fire system going. So need to make sure you get it in one!

Anyway, first you'll need to get into the water and pull the lever there. Of course there's also an aligator in the water, so you'll just need to be fast (you can also kill him, but it's quite easy to swim faster than him, use the E key).

Next, from the plate you used to set everything on fire, jump to the cilinder ahead. Just hold on the edge and when you see flames START to come up, get up, it takes some time for this, so you'll end up on top exactly when the fire stops, so you'll have more time to jump to the other cilinder with the moving flames.

Timing is everything on this section. Just try to pay attention to the movement of the flames and ALWAYS run in the same direction with the flames.

Use the cracks on the second cylinder to climb it and then jump to the enclosure with the switch on the right.

Another cylinder will rise from the water. You'll use this one to get to the one with the lion heads.

Jump to the cylinder in front of you, hold on the cracks until it's safe to come down then quickly jump to the new cylinder.
