Samarqand is a city in southern Uzbekistan.

Hitchhiking out

East towards Panjakent (TJ) (A377)

There is a bus station at the end of Registan street (a bit further, after the last crossroads actually). Take a minibus to the border control point 30 km away from the city to avoid losing a lot of time with short local rides.

N.B. Border control point to Panjakent is closed for foreiners since 2011.


West towards Bukhara

Take bus 35 to the final stop. You will be at the roundabout where the road going out of town converges with the ringroad. Therefore you will be able to catch long distance trucks going around Samarqand. Hitch-hike just past the roundabout.
