There are 243 Earth days for a Venus day - but a Venus year is just under 225 Earth days. Therefore - a day on Venus is longer than a year !
One interesting fact about Venus is that a day on Venus is actually longer than a year on Venus. A Venusian day lasts 243 days, and a year is 224 days. That means that the day on Venus is 19 days longer than the year.
Venus. The "day" (rotation period or sidereal day) is longer than the year! Venus Sidereal day: 243 Earth days. Venus Year: 224.7 Earth days.
Venus has a day that is longer than its year. Venus takes about 243 Earth days to complete one rotation on its axis (day), but it only takes about 225 Earth days to orbit the sun (year).
Venus has a year that is longer than its day. A day on Venus is equivalent to 243 Earth days, while a year (orbital period around the Sun) on Venus is about 225 Earth days.
it rotates VERY slowly

The length of one day on Venus is the same as 243 Earth days. This is because Venus rotates backwards compared to the other planets in the solar system. A day on Venus is actually longer than a year on Venus.
Venus "sidereal day" is longer than its year. Mercury's "solar day" is longer than its year. However, there is no planet in our solar system with a day longer than our year on Earth.

Venus does not spin on it's axis as fast as the earth does. It takes Venus 243 days to do one complete revolution. A day on Venus is longer than it's year.
