Gotemba (御殿場市, Gotenba-shi, sometimes Gotenba) is a city on the southeastern flank of Mount Fuji in Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan.

The area is noted for its numerous golf courses, with the Mitsui Sumitomo Visa Taiheiyo Masters taking place annually.

[3] Gotemba was the location of the earliest known settlement founded in the region of Shizuoka which dates back 2,000 years ago.

The city expanded through annexation of Takane Village on January 1, 1956 and the Furusawa District of Oyama Town on September 1, 1957.

[citation needed] Gotemba has a mayor-council form of government with a directly elected mayor and a unicameral city legislature of 21 members.

Agriculture has traditionally been dominated by rice, irrigated by water from Mount Fuji, and has been supplemented by the growing of various green vegetables and the raising of pigs.
