it makes the closest approach to Earth of any planet, at an average distance of 41 million km. This takes place, on average, once every 584 days. The planet completes an orbit around the sun every 224.65 days, meaning that a year on Venus is 61.5% as long as a year on Earth. ...

A day on Venus is longer than its year. It takes 243 days to rotate once on its axis but only 225 days to orbit around the Sun. Compare that to the Earth, which has 24 hours to rotate on its axis and 365 and a little bit for an orbital year. ...
The Schroter effect: a retrospective: thanks to tricks of light in its atmosphere, Venus isn't always quite what it seems Studies of Venus' atmosphere also could shed light on why Earth and Venus, which are almost exactly the same size and orbit approximately the same distance from the sun...
Venus is the second planet from the Sun, orbiting at an average distance of 108.2 million km. Venus takes a total of 224.7 days to orbit the Sun. The Sun and Venus are vastly different sizes, of course. The diameter of Venus is 12,103 km, while the diameter of the Sun is 1.4 milli...
Venus - Atmosphere, Orbit, Surface: Since Galileo’s discovery of Venus’s phases, the planet has been studied in detail, using Earth-based telescopes, radar, and other instruments. Over the centuries telescopic observers, including Gian Domenico Cassini
Venus revolves around the sun at a mean distance of c.67 million mi (107 million km) in a nearly circular orbit, and its period of revolution is about 225 days. It comes closer to the earth than any other planet, being c.26 million mi (42 million km) away at inferior conjunction. ...
The orbit of Venus is inside the orbit of Earth. Venus is always relatively close to the Sun in the sky. When Venus is on one side of the Sun, it’s following the Sun in the sky and brightens into view shortly after the Sun sets. This is when Venus is seen as the Evening Star....
Venus orbiting the Sun Venus crossing the Sun in an image captured by NASA's TRACE (Transition Region and Coronal Explorer) satellite from Earth orbit. NASA If you looked down on the solar system from somewhere above the Sun’s north pole, you would see the Sun rotating in a counterclockwis...
The planet Venus is the brightest body in the sky after the Sun and the Moon. Venus is an internal planet, that is to say, its entire orbit lies closer to the Sun than the Earth's.doi:10.1007/978-3-319-07266-1_9Leonardo Magini...
