Hane-chō, Okazaki, Residential district in Okazaki, Japan.

Hane-chō is a district of Okazaki, Aichi Prefecture, made up of 19 small numbered sub-areas (aza) and split into two detached parts, east and west, after repeated boundary reorganisations. The Urabe River runs along the western part, and the district holds several ponds, among them Hane-Ōike and Unagi-ike. The Tōkaidō Main Line and the Aichi Loop Line meet at Okazaki Station on its south-western edge.

Hane was a village in Nukata District before the 1889 town-and-village system merged it with Hashira, Tozaki, Wakamatsu and Harisaki into Okazaki Village, where it became the oaza Hane. It was annexed to Okazaki City on 1 September 1928. Documents record the name as Hane-go, and the lordship passed through Tanaka Yoshimasa's rule to become Okazaki domain territory.

The name Hane derives from the ancient Haji-be clan's local presence and the hani clay dug there. The neighbourhood keeps 19 small named subdivisions (koaza), among them Azukizaka, site of the two Azukizaka battles. Okazaki Technical High School and Aichi Pet Vocational School stand within the district.

Hane-chō has no single centre: it is split into an eastern and a western exclave, so check which part you need before setting out. Okazaki Station, on the JR Tōkaidō Main Line and the Aichi Loop Line, borders the southwestern section. Meitetsu buses on the Okazaki city line serve stops including Hane, Hane Elementary School and Jīnba.

Four kofun survive in the Azukizaka area of Hane-chō: Azukizaka Nos. 3, 4, 5 and 6. Azukizaka also gave its name to two battles fought there, and the place name itself derives from the local soil, haji-tsuchi, dug up in antiquity.
