Power is what the wall supplies, not what a device needs: most phone and laptop chargers take 100 to 240 V, so you usually need only a plug adapter. Check the label on your device.
Plugs, power and driving side are shown only where two sources agree (Wikipedia, Mains electricity by country (from the IEC's World Plugs), worldstandards.eu, Wikidata, Wikipedia, Left- and right-hand traffic), checked 2026-10-11. See .

Comfort uses the typical daytime high (most comfortable at 20 to 28°C) and the typical rainfall (most comfortable under 1 mm a day), averaged over 2001–2020. Highs and lows are worked out from the monthly average temperature and the average daily swing, so they are close, not exact. It is not a forecast. Humidity, crowds, prices and festivals are not included, and a mountain or coast can differ from its half-degree grid cell.
