CNNGo TV in New Delhi
A century ago Britain's King George V -- who was also styled Emperor of India -- declared India's capital would be moved from Kolkata to the ancient settlement of Delhi.
CNNGo's roving TV show captures the Indian capital of New Delhi at the time of its 100th birthday, which fell on December 12.
Besides being India's political capital, in recent years New Delhi has also flagged off a new metro line, the Commonwealth Games and India’s first F1 Grand Prix -- all of which have increased its status as one of Asia's most important cities.
CNNGo TV delves into New Delhi's living history as well as its latest urban hot spots, with a host of friendly, in-the-know locals.
Here's a run through of the sites and spots we hit in our week-long Delhi dash.
