The pyramid of the pharoah Neferirkare who died in 2426 bc. Notice the buried mortuary temple in front, with the broken columns of the entrance hall sticking out of the sand in the middle.

I've had trouble pinpointing where this is, but I think it is the mortuary temple of Queen Khentkawes, who was the mother of the pharoahs Raneferef and Niuserre.
I took this photo of the pyramids of Giza from the top of Niuserre's pyramid. They are approximately
12 km away. The pyramid of Menkaure on the left, Khafre in the middle, and Khufu on the right. The corner of the pyramid of Sahure is in front of me.
This is a shot of the Sakkara pyramids with the Step Pyramid of Djoser in the middle, Userkaf on the left, and Unas on the right. I was standing in the morturary temple of Queen Khentkawes. They are about 3 km away.
