Venus has a retrograde rotation, which means it spins on its axis in the opposite direction compared to most other planets in the solar system, including Earth. This means the sun rises in the west and sets in the east on Venus.

Here are some additional details about Venus's rotation:

* Slow rotation: Venus rotates very slowly, taking 243 Earth days to complete one rotation. This is significantly slower than Earth's 24-hour rotation.

* Axis tilt: Venus has a very small axial tilt (about 2.6 degrees), which means it experiences very little seasonal variation.

* Length of a day: Due to the combination of its slow rotation and its orbital period (225 Earth days), a day on Venus (the time it takes for the sun to return to the same position in the sky) is longer than its year.

This unique rotation pattern is believed to be the result of a massive impact early in Venus's history.
