RHIC-STAR is a mid-rapidity collider experiment for studying high energy nuclear collisions. The main physics goals of STAR experiment are 1) studying the properties of the strongly coupled Quark Gluon Plasma 2) explore the QCD phase diagram structure. In these proceedings, we will review the recent results of heavy ion physics at STAR.
