Summary:
There doesn't seem to be any way to view your search history in Safari anymore.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Safari
2. Tap the URL/Search bar.

Expected Results:
In the past, a search history would appear.

Actual Results:
No search history—instead, a list of top sites.

Regression:
This is new to iOS 7.

Notes:
It's often faster to bring up a past search than to sift through your entire browser history. A search may lead you down a convoluted path as you browse for more information, so your visited history can grow to be quite long. In contrast, the search history tends to highlight general topics.

As such, search history is much more concise, and faster to parse and browse. This can be a great help on a mobile device where space is at a premium.
