    Yes, the Sun is much larger. The largest planet in our solar system is Jupiter, and the Sun is about a thousand times larger (in both mass and volume) than Jupiter is. This is why the planets orbit around the Sun. If the masses of the planets were large in comparison to the Sun, the Sun's motion would be affected by the planets.
