Various physical phenomena which can be easily observed in diamond anvil are reviewed. The phenomena include crystal growth and phase transformation in H2O ice, growth and the formation of negative crystal in CCl4 ice, index matching of MnF2 crystal and alcohol under pressure, and the color change in AgI associated with the phase transformations. All these phenomena can be observed easily below 2 GPa and can be used as a good example to teach physics.
