Two entrances lead to the burial chamber; one is located 11.54 m up the northern face of the pyramid, and the other at the base of the pyramid on the same axis. I think, that is what is seen here.

One of the world’s most fascinating ghost towns, according to National Geographic. Pyramiden is only accessible by helicopter, 4 hour boat ride or snowmobile from Longyearbyen.
Pyramiden was founded by Sweden in 1910 and sold to the Soviet Union in 1927. In the 1980s, the mining community had a population of more than 1,000. It is named after the pyramid-shaped mountain of the same name nearby. Pyramiden is now mostly visited by seagulls, polar foxes and, not infrequently, polar bears.
