A tourist-popular live music venue on Amir Timur Street.
Samarkand Blues Bar is a live-music venue reported at 66 Amir Timur Street in Samarkand, Uzbekistan, and is described as a tourist favourite. The building has two separate bars: a small, cosy room with limited seating and a larger area where live bands perform. The address is from a single guide and the coordinates here are approximate, so visitors should confirm the exact location on a map app before travelling. Opening hours are not confirmed in the sources found, but evening visits are the norm, and live music generally starts after dinner. Prices are an estimate: a beer or cocktail costs roughly 40,000 to 100,000 UZS (about $3.3 to $8.3). It suits visitors who want music rather than a quiet wine bar. Alcohol is legal but public drunkenness is frowned on, and taxis should be booked through an app for the return trip. Because the venue is away from the Registan, combining it with an early dinner on Amir Timur Street works well.
