I took some pictures around town last week; I could not get as many as I would have liked because there was a lot of traffic and there is no point of pictures with a lot of cars (unless you are in the city and it is part of the atmosphere).
One of the main features of Emmaus is "The Triangle," a green park-like area in the center of town. Since it is basically just a space with a lot of grass and some benches, it is a main feature of the town mainly for navigational purposes: you can say "It's past the Triangle" or "before you hit the Triangle." In the summer there are band concerts and in the winter I have seen an ice sculpture exhibition.
The town has many more neat individual shops than I could picture or name: The Emmaus Jewel Box, The Three Dog Bakery( home baked dog treats), the Basket Gypsy, Rice and Spice (an Indian grocery) and my personal favorite, The Golden Trigger (gun shop). There are many places to eat: Traub's Doggies (hot dogs and ice cream), Armetta's Italian Restaurant (my favorite is the deep dish pizza), an Indian Resturant whose name I don't know, at least two coffee bars, Lee Gribben's, an old fashioned ice cream parlor. I am sure I have left some out. All of these are within walking distance of down town, where there is a lot of parking. There is also a bakery, sea food emporium, toy store and stained glass studio (which I really want to see but put off for fear of crushing disappointment- I am certain to see many item I want but can'y afford due to constantly being close to broke).
