The finding of Photon Hall effect (PHE) on metal surface is an important progress in photonics, but it will be more practical if PHE can be realized in line-type waveguide. In this paper, we suggested a way to realize PHE in two-dimensional photonic crystal (PC) waveguide. Numerical simulation results show that the propagating direction and strength of light in the PC waveguide can be controlled by the polarization state of incident light. Different from the PHE on metal surface, the PHE in PC waveguide can be driven not only by circularly polarized light, but also by linearly polarized light. The PHE in PC waveguide can be attributed to the interference of the two component waves excited by the incident light.
