It is about 201,384 miles away and it is the hottest planet...literally!

At its closest point, Venus is 66.7 million miles away from the sun. At the farthest point, Venus is 67.7 million miles away from the sun.
In going away from the sun Mercury comes before Venus and Earth comes after.
There is no planet that can be described as "about as far" from the Sun as Mercury. It's the planet closest to the Sun, and the only other planet closer to the Sun than Earth is Venus, which is about twice the distance away from the Sun compared to Mercury. Considering that's a difference of roughly 51,000,000 km (0.32 AU, 1 AU is the average distance from the Earth to the Sun), that's one hell of a long way away. Still, it's closer than any other planet (however, even the Sun is closer to Mercury than Venus).
Venus, but is also hotter than Mercury even though it is further away from the sun.
4 planets. Mercury, Venus Earth and Mars
Venus is the second planet from the sun, after Mercury.
This varies (because both orbit the Sun) from 0.34 AU to 1.1 AU.
mercury and venus
Venus is the second planet. The first is Mercury.
At its closest point, Venus is 66.7 million miles away from the sun. At the farthest point, Venus is 67.7 million miles away from the sun.
About 15 years away.
In going away from the sun Mercury comes before Venus and Earth comes after.
Venus is the closest on the suns side, Mars is closest on the far side The order of the planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, annd Pluto (if that counts). So Mercury, Venus, and Mars are all pretty close by. ________________________ Remember, however, that all the planets are orbiting at different speeds. Sometimes Earth is on the same side of the Sun that Mars or Venus is, and sometimes they're twice as far away, on the other side of the Sun from us. So while Venus and Mars come closer to the Earth than Mercury does, sometimes Mercury is closer to Earth than Venus is - because Venus is at the other end of its orbit.

The planets in our solar system that do not have any moons are Mercury and Venus.
As far as is known to modern Astronomy, Venus is Mercury's closest neighboring planet.
