Kanzaki (神埼市 Kanzaki-shi?) is a city located in Saga Prefecture, Japan.
As of January 1, 2007, the city has an estimated population of 33,348 and a population density of 267 persons per km². The total area is 125.01 km².
The modern city of Kanzaki was established on March 20, 2006, from the merger of the former town of Kanzaki, absorbing the town of Chiyoda, and the village of Sefuri (all from Kanzaki District). As a result of this merger there are no longer any villages in Saga Prefecture.
The northern part of the city is located in the middle of the Sefuri Mountains. As one goes south the elevation lowers. The southern part consists of the north bank of the Chikugo River and the Saga Plains, and the Jōbaru River runs through the middle portion of the city. The southeast border with Kurume in Fukuoka Prefecture is formed by the Chikugo River.
The nearest airport is Saga Airport in Kawasoe, followed by Fukuoka Airport.
