The New York Yankees are arguably the city’s most famous ambassadors and probably one of the most legendary sports teams in the world. You can see them playing at home at the world-renowned Yankee Stadium, in the Bronx, while The Opera House Hotel is a lovely place to stay in this borough. Even though the new stadium is a block away from the one that Babe Ruth played in, you can still visit the original stadium site – it’s now the Heritage Field public park. Despite grabbing most of the limelight, the Yankees are by no means the only team in town. They share a fierce rivalry with their cross-town neighbours, the New York Mets – games between them are called the Subway Series. Their home stadium is in Queens.
