In the 16th century, Spain (take) control of Peru and ruled until 1821. It (be) for this reason that Spanish is the main official language of the country. If you want to travel around Peru, there are four places worth visit. First, you'll begin your Amazon rainforest tour.

Then, if you expect (admire) the Incas' unique architecture, Machu Picchu is the perfect place you to visit. There you'll be amazed by the ancient city, (especial) its dry stone method of building. The next place, Cusco, was once the capital of the Inca Empire, at you can visit the museums and enjoy the excellent local food. From Cusco, you drive along the new highway for a day, arriving at Lake Titicaca. There, a boat (take) you to stay with a local Uros family on an island for three days.
