"The bridge as metaphor for love, life and death – even an eternal gateway to Paradise - has long haunted the innermost depths of the human psyche. Many have become the stuff of legend and folktale - The River Kwai, San Lue Rey, ancient Rome’s Tiber bridge heroically defended against impossible odds by the republic’s first citizen hero Horatius, as immortalised by Thomas Babington Macaulay, to name but three.
The first iron bridge over the mighty Yellow River bids fair to join this legendary roll call."
