+
+       Venus relief dataset.
+
+    The grids are downloaded to a user data directory (usually
+    ``~/.gmt/server/venus/venus_relief/``) the first time you invoke this function.
+    Afterwards, it will load the grid from the data directory. So you'll need an
+    internet connection the first time around.
+
+    These grids can also be accessed by passing in the file name
+    **@venus_relief**\_\ *res*\[_\ *reg*] to any grid processing function or plotting
+    method. *res* is the grid resolution (see below), and *reg* is the grid registration
+    type (**p** for pixel registration or **g** for gridline registration).
+
+    The default color palette table (CPT) for this dataset is *@venus_relief.cpt*. It's
+    implicitly used when passing in the file name of the dataset to any grid plotting
+    method if no CPT is explicitly specified. When the dataset is loaded and plotted as
+    an :class:`xarray.DataArray` object, the default CPT is ignored, and GMT's default
+    CPT (*turbo*) is used. To use the dataset-specific CPT, you need to explicitly set
+    ``cmap="@venus_relief.cpt"``.
+
+    Refer to :gmt-datasets:`venus-relief.html` for more details about available
+    datasets, including version information and references.
+
+    Parameters
+    ----------
+    resolution : str
+        The grid resolution. The suffix ``d`` and ``m`` stand for arc-degrees and
+        arc-minutes. It can be ``"01d"``, ``"30m"``, ``"20m"``, ``"15m"``, ``"10m"``,
+        ``"06m"``, ``"05m"``, ``"04m"``, ``"03m"``, ``"02m"``, and ``"01m"``.
+    region : str or list
+        The subregion of the grid to load, in the form of a list
+        [*xmin*, *xmax*, *ymin*, *ymax*] or a string *xmin/xmax/ymin/ymax*.
+        Required for grids with resolutions higher than 5 arc-minutes (i.e., ``"05m"``).
+    registration
+        Grid registration type. Either ``"pixel"`` for pixel registration or
+        ``"gridline"`` for gridline registration.
+
+    Returns
+    -------
+    grid : :class:`xarray.DataArray`
+        The Venus relief grid. Coordinates are latitude and longitude in degrees. Relief
+        is in meters.
+
+    Note
+    ----
+    The registration and coordinate system type of the returned
+    :class:`xarray.DataArray` grid can be accessed via the GMT accessors (i.e.,
+    ``grid.gmt.registration`` and ``grid.gmt.gtype`` respectively). However, these
+    properties may be lost after specific grid operations (such as slicing) and will
+    need to be manually set before passing the grid to any PyGMT data processing or
+    plotting functions. Refer to :class:`pygmt.GMTDataArrayAccessor` for detailed
+    explanations and workarounds.
+
+    Examples
+    --------
+    >>> from pygmt.datasets import load_venus_relief
+    >>> # load the default grid (gridline-registered 1 arc-degree grid)
+    >>> grid = load_venus_relief()
+    >>> # load the 30 arc-minutes grid with "gridline" registration
+    >>> grid = load_venus_relief(resolution="30m", registration="gridline")
+    >>> # load high-resolution (5 arc-minutes) grid for a specific region
+    >>> grid = load_venus_relief(
+    ...     resolution="05m",
