Leiden_West_Gate_over_Old_Rhein [1 of 21]
I lived in a Leiden commune for a time, and also took Ruth there in 1974. [Wikipedia]: Leiden (in English also – though now rarely – Leyden) is a city and municipality in the province of South Holland in the Netherlands. It forms a single urban area with Oegstgeest, Leiderdorp, Voorschoten, Valkenburg, Rijnsburg and Katwijk, with 254,000 inhabitants. It is located on the Old Rhine, close to the cities of The Hague and Haarlem.
Leiden is also the birthplace of Rembrandt and a university town since 1575, and famed for the Leiden Jar (a capacitor that stored static electricity). Also, the Pilgrims, led by John Robinson, first settled in Leiden, but left because their children were becoming too like the Dutch.
