This classic riddle says: I have no doors and no windows, but there’s something golden inside me. What am I?
The answer is: an egg.
An egg is completely enclosed by its shell, so it has no doors or windows. Inside, however, is the yolk, which is usually yellow or golden in color.
The wording makes the object sound like a strange little house, encouraging you to think about buildings or containers. But the clue about something golden inside points toward the yolk.
The shell keeps everything enclosed until the egg is cracked open, which is why the “no doors and no windows” description works so well. It is a simple riddle, but the house-like wording makes the answer less obvious at first.
