The Institut de France is a French education society 
grouping five académies, 
the most famous of which is the Académie française.  


It is impressive by day but an exhilarating sight at night

    That dome, I think, is what gives it such extraordinary appeal.

    Superb! It refers two of the ways to enjoy Paris, in small group or in couple. And part of the time at night. Sure the couple comes from the Pont des Arts. The power of the small red spot of the flag at center is amazing. ...why I feel like to look for a just made Croque-madame and a glass of wine at this time of night?
