Seven.

IMHO, if #6 were situated in a world-class city, and not amid the contrasting squalor of Agra, it would not be on the list. I do appreciate your not listing those tower things in the two P-cities. What I have been most impressed by were #2 and #3. #1 is significant in its length and overall mass, but the unreconstructed parts that I have seen were not all that stunning.
