Zhongshan Bridge is a bridge in the modern history of China, Gansu people independently and voluntarily cooperate with Westerners in pure economic and technical cooperation. However, its construction process is not smooth, during the period of friction, after many reasons to strive, finally built, and still stand on the Yellow River 100 years after operation. As the earliest and only modern steel beam bridge built on the Yellow River to date, Zhongshan Bridge has been used, historical and cultural relics value in one.

Hongwu eight years, Weiguogong Deng Yuxizheng, in the city ten miles to build a pontoon bridge, named Zhenyuan pontoon bridge. Due to the unstable bridge foundation, Hongwu 18 years, Lanzhou Wei commanded Yang Lian to build the bridge at the Jinchengguan site in Tang and Song Dynasty, with two iron pillars on both sides of the Straits, 25 wooden boats with chain links, bridge boards, and guardrails to communicate the traffic between the Central Plains and the Great Northwest. The iron column weighs about 10 tons and is5.8 meters long. It is called the "general pillar" and there is one left today. Qing Guangxu 33 (1907), Governor of Shaanxi and Gansu Shengyun built the iron bridge at the old site of Zhenyuan Floating Bridge, built by German Tailai Foreign Bank Kayousi, and supervised by Lanzhou Road Station Peng Yingjia. American engineer Man Baoben and German engineer Druo built it. Huagong Liu Yong led Chinese craftsmen to build it.

In 1954, the state allocated 600,000 yuan to strengthen the iron bridge and install arched steel beams on the parallel strings to make the iron bridge more beautiful and strong. In 2011, the Lanzhou Municipal Government, in accordance with the principle of "repairing the old as the old", repaired and strengthened the Zhongshan Bridge again, lifted the bridge body 1.2 meters, and strengthened the ability to resist earthquake and flood discharge. Now it is a key national cultural relics protection unit.
