"For many years, the Yarlung Tsangpo in eastern Tibet was known to be among the deepest valleys in the world. Its inaccessibility meant that its depth could not be directly measured-until 1993, when, after 10 years of trying, explorer Richard Fisher obtained the permits he needed to visit the area. British botanist Francis Kingdon Ward explored (the west end of) the Yarlung Tsangpo at the beginning of the century, but no other Westerners were able to do so until Fisher led his expedition there.
With a group of fellow Americans, plus Chinese and Tibetan colleagues and Minba and Loba tribal co-explorers, Fisher set off into the unknown. The result was clear-cut: the discovery of the deepest valley on earth.
With soaring peaks on either side of the Yarlung Tsangpo, measurements were extremely difficult to take, but the conclusion was that the valley is 16,650 feet deep near the Tibet-India border. The peaks of Namche Barwa (25,436 feet) and Jala Peri (23,891 feet) are 13 miles apart, and the Yarlung Tsangpo River flows between them at an elevation of 8,000 feet.

Based on how low you are going to be, and if you wish to reach it without getting your feet wet, it is the valley at the shore of the Dead Sea, the lowest depression on earth.
If you'd like to hear about the lowest spot underneath the ocean surface, it is in the Marianas Trench, if you want to consider it a valley.
If you mean the deepest valley, with its lowest point measured from the highest surrounding mountain peak or plateau, we're talking about the Yarlung Tsangpo in Tibet..
