To begin the puzzle, you must take photos of the writing on each side of the fountain. Indy will translate the Latin for these phrasesproviding clues about the dragon statues above the fountain. They must be turned so that the Dragons of Light and Darkness are facing each other, which will open the way to the hidden sacred monastery. If you have difficulty solving puzzles, lowering the difficulty to Clear Mode will increase the number of hints provided.
Acquire the Fountain Gate Key from the nearby chest and proceed to the storage room. Climb the window that will take Indy to the first dragon statue. However, it cannot be turned until Indy retrieves the dragon claw from the nearby scaffolding. Picking up this dragon claw will trigger a cutscene with Gina, who will be out of her nun disguise.

Unlock the gate
Now that the gate is exposed, you must figure out how to unlock it. Start by pulling the uncovered handle on the fountain to turn the gate and find a statue of a child and a statue of a priest. Fill the priest's bucket with water attaching Indy's whip to the hook near the top of the gate and pulling it down. Then, bring the statues together so that the priest's bucket tilts to perform the baptism on the child's statue. This will complete the first part of the process.
Pull the next fountain handle to turn the gate once more. This will reveal a turntable puzzle in which you must guide the boat to the other side of the gate wall. Using the whip on the hooks will pull the boat left or right. Some combinations work here, but the main thing is to make sure any wooden obstructions are removed from the boat's path. Once the boat is on the other side of the wall, you will have completed the Fountain of Confession puzzle and can continue with the main quest in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle.
