Emperor Go-Fushimi was an emperor of the Kamakura period, reigning from 1298 to 1301.

Go-Fushimi was an emperor of the Jimyôin line of imperial succession, which alternated for a time with the Daikakuji line descended from Emperor Kameyama. The division later developed into the Northern and Southern Courts of the Nanbokuchô Period, which competed in claims to the throne.

He succeeded his father Emperor Fushimi in 1298. Go-Fushimi abdicated in 1301 in favor of Emperor Go-Nijô.
