A brief introduction of Peru
PERU is a country on the Pacific coast of South America with three main areas: narrow, dry, flat land running along the coast, the Andes Mountains, and the Amazon rainforest.In the 1400s and 1500s, Peru was the centre of the powerful ancient Inca Empire. The Inca emperor lived in the now-famous site Machu Picchu. Spain took control of Peru in the 16th century and ruled until 1821. It is for this reason that Spanish is the main official language of Peru.

One possible version:
Jane likes studying architecture and history, so I recommend Jane to travel to Cusco and Machu Picchu. She can spend 4 days enjoying the unique Spanish and local Indian culture high in the Andes at Cusco. The museums and architecture here will bring you to a magical world. And because she is also attracted to history, the 4-day tour to Machu Picchu is a best choice for her. The ancient city will amaze her by its building way, which is quite different and perfect.
