"In Leiden, Haller mentions Hieronymus David Gaubius becoming a professor in 1730. On August 16, Haller leaves Leiden for Amsterdam. He explains the advantages of the boat transportation system in Holland, mentioning the travel costs and the departure times. He arrives in Haarlem, which he starts describing. He mentions the house of Laurens Cooster, the Grote Kerk, and a cabinet of curiosities. He then goes to Amsterdam, describing the city from afar, then recalls its origins."
