Several places are named in honour of the 21st Sultan of Johor, Sultan Abu Bakar who administered the state between 1862 and 1886 before being proclaimed Sultan in 1886 and reigned until his death in 1895. A good number of places named after him are buildings, although a few of them take the form of roads.
