Venus is a rocky planet that is very hot and basically melts from the heat of the sun. It's temperature is about 460 C and its air contains 96.5% of carbon dioxide. Venus has a lot of volcanoes and 80% of its surface is covered with smooth volcanic plains. Venus has two continents: one on the northern part of it (Ishtar Terra), and one near the equator (Aphrodite Terra). Its highest mountain, Maxwell Montes is 11 km above the Venusian average surface elevation.

I think of the word terrestrial as referring specifically to the earth. But in the context of your question I think you are referring to a rocky planet as opposed to a gas giant. Venus is a rocky planet, or terrestrial to use your term. There are 4 rocky planets: Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars. Don't let the water on the Earth confuse you with the term rocky. The water is extremely shallow in astronomical dimensions. The gas planets, often called gas giants, are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. Pluto is no longer considered a planet and I do not know which category it would fall into.
