Purim last one day.

in most of the cities it celebrated on the 14th of Adar.

but in cities that was walled at the time of Joshua Purim is celebrated on the 15th of Adar, this day is also called Shushan Purim.

so it is also right to say that Purim lasts for two days (14-15 of Adar) but in each place is last only one day.
