Are day and night the same length in Minecraft?

Night feels way shorter than day on my survival world but maybe that's just because I'm hiding in a hole. Roughly how many real minutes does each last?

No, day is longer. A full cycle is 20 real minutes: roughly 10 minutes of daytime, about a minute and a half of sunset, 7 minutes of night, then another minute and a half of sunrise. So night is a bit under half. Feels longer when you're stuck in a dirt hut though.
